Did you
know that...
-
In
order to attain a high school diploma, students must
meet two mathematics requirements: they must earn a
minimum of three credits of mathematics, and they must
pass one regents examination in mathematics. In order
to attain a diploma with distinction they must also
pass three regents examinations: Integrated Algebra,
Integrated Geometry, and Integrated Algebra 2 and
Trigonometry.
-
Mathematics is not a spectator sport. All students
need to practice mathematics in order to improve their
skills. Therefore, all students regularly have
homework in mathematics.
-
Students who are having difficulty in math are
encouraged to see their teacher and schedule an extra
help session. The mathematics department runs after
school review classes for all math students taking a
math regents examination. The classes are help in
January and June.
-
Graphing calculators are used in all math classes.
Students who are in a class taking a Regents exam in
January or June are issued graphing calculators.
Students in other math classes are given graphing
calculators that are used in class only.
-
The
Middletown High School mathematics department has a
very successful Math Team. This team is a member of
the DUSO league. The team competes against students
from Dutchess, Ulster, Sullivan, and Orange counties.
Our students are among the top scorers in the league
and we routinely have students who are picked to
compete at the state meet.
